Possible INGO Group Buy?

txgho1911 · 03-30-2008

Group-buy suggestion? or is that to much for us yet?
I was wondering how to start a group-buy for reloading components. Geographically smarter for a state based board for FtF distributions of the heavy and hazmat challenged parts.
Some shops around will not carry any components as they believe insurance would double for the shop even if they only carried brass and bullet.
If I posted this as an interest thread and dropped a link at a few other boards this might promote this board for some who have not heard of it yet.

This is a great idea txgho. I don't really need anything but I'll help set it up any way I can using this forum.

I would be very interested but I suspect their will be too many varied requests. I prefer Zero bullets, but Bob wants Montana Gold, while Lou only shoots Bullseye powder and Henry wont shoot anything but Hodgons.

If It can be put together, I'd be glad to get a cheap rate on Federal small pistol primers and some 125. 9mm bullets.

I'd be interested in an ammunition group buy if reliable ammunition for a decent price could be located.

Interested in 50 cal, 30 carbine, 7.62X39, .223, .308, 45, 357, or maybe even some 9MM

Prefer non Russian non lacquered reliable rounds :do2:

loaded ammo would be a good idea too.

Id be in for some brass cased 9mm ball in either 115 or 125 gr. if we could get a price down. Also maybe some decent .223 ammo.

Fenway, if you wanna set it up, I wouldnt be against your turning a profit for your efforts. I'd be curious how low the price could get.

I could get in on that. After the Walmart WWB 9mm price jump, I wouldn't mind a bulk purchase of cheaper plinking ammo.

Does AIM Surplus give quantity discounts, is that our best deal and do we need an FFL to barter a better deal? I'm sure that Karl would help out and we could pay a commission to him. If bought from AIM, we could pick it up direct if it saved enough on shipping.

I don't want any money.

Let's just try and get everyone some cheap ammo.

I have done several group buys for the guys on HKpro and the can work very effectively. The great power of the group buy is you can get the price down on shipping and sometimes the more you buy the lower the actual price of the product you are purchasing. I would be happy to help out on group buys.
